Trivia

  • Pidgeot originally had an extra "t" in its name, but it was dropped.
  • There is an error on Pidgeot's Generation II and Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald backsprites. The 'hair' on its head is shorter than it is on the front sprite.
  • It is one of the few Pokémon whose Template:Shiny2 sprites changed colors; in Generation II, Pidgeot's shiny was all green with peach tail/feathers, in Generation III the whole body changed to gold.
  • Pidgeot was capable of learning Sky Attack in Generation I. But, for some reason, it could not learn the move again until Pokémon Platinum.
  • In Generation II Pidgeot's tail was two colors, Pink and White. In The Official art and in the Anime it was completely pink however. They changed the tail to completely pink in Generation III.

Origin

Despite its name, its appearance and behavior do not resemble a pigeon so much as that of a bird of prey, particularly an eagle or an osprey.

Name origin

Its name may just be a variation of pigeon, but depending on how one pronounces it, the word jet may be incorporated into its name.

In other languages

  • German: Tauboss - Combination of Taube (pigeon) and the English word boss.
  • French: Roucarnage - From roucoule (coo) and English carnage.
  • Korean: 피죤투 Pijontu
  • Chinese (Taiwan): 比雕 Bî Diao - Transliteration of the first part of its Japanese name, Pigeot. The last character, 雕, means eagle.
  • Chinese (Hong Kong): 大比鳥 Dái Bî Nîao - In relation to the name of its pre-evolved form, Pidgeotto, this name literally means 'big Pidgeotto'.
